choices, decisions, man comes alive at such points, forks in the road, to open the door, to walk in, to keep on walking, store fronts and window displays. but even then, even now, and whenever, realizing that the choice itself, this agonizing piece of free will incarnate, well, it's not that important in the larger, largest, biggest scheme of things. On the other hand, it could very well be the cornerstone of everything that follows. Ugh. It's just more of the same, and maybe the same isn't good enough anymore, settling for inaction, resting for the next chance which never comes, waiting to catch my breath when plenty of oxygen is available. maybe that just doesn't cut it. and it's time to step up to the plate. and it's time to take a swing, grind in the cleats, take a couple practice swings, and swing away. swing away. |
